Urban Tamu, Malaysia National Day and Sabah Day

Celebrating two significant milestones

You're invited to celebrate two important milestones: Malaysia's 67th National Day and Sabah Day. This is an opportunity to delve into Malaysia's rich history and cultural heritage.

Malaysia's National Day marks the anniversary of the country's independence from British colonial rule, which was achieved on 31 August 1957. It is a momentous occasion that symbolises Malaysia's journey towards sovereignty and nationhood. The celebrations honour the resilience and unity of its diverse population and reflect on the nation's progress and achievements since independence.

Sabah Day, celebrated on 16 September, commemorates the joining of Sabah with Malaya, Sarawak and Singapore to form Malaysia in 1963. The day highlights Sabah's significant role in the formation of Malaysia and celebrates its unique cultural identity and contributions to the federation. Sabah Day is a time to recognise the rich indigenous cultures, traditions and natural beauty of the state.
